How’s this for a trip back to the future: Gresso is a Russian luxury company that pimps limited-edition gadgets that sell for twice your mortgage payment, before you hit the fine print. So it’s Dorian Gray of me to want a USB flash drive crafted out of 200 year-old African blackwood and diamonds — at least this Gresso “Labyrinth” USB flash drive has a memory of 192GB… |
 |
Made of African red- or blackwood, 18K gold, and a ruby or diamond that pulses with LED light, the coolest part of this Gresso “Pandora” USB flash drive is that its 64GB memory is protected with a fingerprint-scanning detector… |
 |
There’s a balance between form and function, and this Gresso “New Years” USB flash drive is tipped. It’s as absurdly luxurious as the other Gresso USB flash drives, only its use of 200 year-old Royal Mahogany wood isn’t matched by equally exceptional technology… |

Camera-crafter Leica has history as an innovator, and still Leica digital cameras are built with weight, unlike most throwaway, plastic-brick digicams. And by “weight,” I mean price — this Leica digicam weighs in at $5,995. You were going to skip paying your mortgage anyway… |
 |
My little bro’s the photographer, but I can’t take a bad photo with this Leica digicam. Mostly because I’m in every photo — yep, I’m a middle child! — and I’m hot. Bah-dump chhhh… |
 |
Why the hate? Because this Leica digicam isn’t mine — yet… |

Backup, backup, backup. My whole life is in my Macbook, so I back up everything onsite and off. LaCie makes sexy hard drives that sit pretty on your desktop, and I love the matte black of this LaCie Monolithic hard drive… |
 |
I’m a sucker for Porsche design. I adore my Carrera’s classic clean lines, and this LaCie Porsche hard drive has the same elegance of economy… |
 |
I like the unusual design of this LaCie Golden Disc hard drive, but the waves of mirror gold is a little Lady Gaga for me… |

I’ve paid more than $99 for a personal massager, and now I’m tempted to shell out a single: for $0.99 iBrate Pro offers a slow pulse, a fast pound, and “an invigorating massage.” This app is exactly what Steve Jobs had in mind when he created his uber smartphone… |
 |
I only downloaded this free iBrate iVibrator so I could blog to you about it, lovely. Promise… |
 |
iVibrateMe swears it’s “great for your ’special’ private areas.” I adore direct men, but I prefer a little more subtlety from my iPhone vibrating apps. Creep… |

ManyBooks.net is a choice site; I’ve loved it since it at least college. You can download public domain Kindle books for free, including Memoirs of Fanny Hill, a classic novel about a kept woman… |

One of the few assigned books I read in college (I graduated with a B.S. in Pseudo-Intellectual Masturbation, from A Big Waste of Money)… |

Yawn… |

Get a Dita’ish dame in your pants for less than a buck — Pocket Pinups iPhone app is an exclusive collection of hundreds of vintage pin-up pics, including everything from rare burlesque shots to that go-go girl next door… |

Hottest Girls is an iPhone app that gives you 1,500+ hand-picked pics of beautiful broads. You can even request certain types of chicks — Megan Fox with her mouth shut? — for the next Hottest Girls update, which is free. If I was a dude, I’m not sure I’d bother dating anymore… |

I’m supposed to get excited about girls in Corvettes? A chick driving a Porsche goes from a six to a nine, a new rig gives her plus two, but cruising in a Corvette? Minus four… |

People talk about how they love the feel of paper in their hands; they can’t read a book any other way. Please. Unless the book is beautifully bound, who cares? It’s about the mental movie playing in your mind. I need to download Kindle for iPhone so I can enjoy more Ayn Rand… |

I used eReader on my Palm Treo, years ago, in school — it was a great way to get around lugging the books I never bought to class. Now I used eReader on the iPhone, and it’s so good — it’s connected to ManyBooks.net, a site full of free ebooks. I’m always re-reading Ibsen, Edith Wharton, and How to Use Your Mind (though why a chick would need to know how to think, I’m not sure)… |
 |
I downloaded Stanza on the iPhone. It’s not that Stanza is awful — it looks and e-feels just like all the other iPhone ereaders. It’s more about how hard it is to get books on your iPhone… |
